  Founding member of Mothers of Plaza de Mayo passes away aged 95

  

  Aída Bogo de Sarti, a founding member of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo Línea Fundadora, passed away aged 95 last Saturday, her family announced Monday in Buenos Aires. She became an icon of resistance after her daughter, Beatriz Sarti, was kidnapped and disappeared in May 1977 during the dictatorship (1976-1983). Joining other mothers like Azucena Villaflor in Plaza de Mayo, she turned her personal grief into a lifelong fight for memory, truth, and justice.“We mothers are saying goodbye little by little, leaving the best legacy we can,” the organization mentioned in a statement.
